# Cubic or Isometric - not always cube shaped! You'll also find octahedrons (eight faces) and dodecahedrons (10 faces). # Tetragonal - similar to cubic crystals, but longer along one axis than the other, forming double pyramids and prisms. # Orthorhombic - like tetragonal crystals except not square in cross section (when viewing the crystal on end), forming rhombic prisms or dipyramids (two pyramids stuck together). # Hexagonal - six-sided prisms. When you look at the crystal on-end, the cross section is a hexagon. # Trigonal - possess a single 3-fold axis of rotation instead of the 6-fold axis of the hexagonal division. # Triclinic - usually not symmetrical from one side to the other, which can lead to some fairly strange shapes. # Monoclinic - like skewed tetragonal crystals, often forming prisms and double pyramids.
